[UPDATE 11/16/2023]: LW admin AvaddonFC has confirmed that photos of your grows are allowed.

Hello everyone, I just wanted to take a moment to make sure we are all up to speed on this community’s rules. /c/Shrooms was reopened on the condition that we enforce LW’s TOS. Feel free to post your questions here or shoot me a PM.

Our community rules as they currently stand:
1. Follow the Lemmy World Terms of Service.
2. Be helpful.
3. No trading of anything here. (See rule 1.)
4. Do not post about vendors. (See rule 1.)
5. No Irrelevant Content.
6. No instructions on how to grow or where to source materials.

I know that rule 6 is a bit broad and potentially vague. I have messaged an admin for clarification and will update this post when I receive a response. For now, I believe it’s best to air on the side of caution and remove all posts about growing.

    That is something I am actively seeking clarification on. The point is afaik that LW does not want to expose itself to legal issues by hosting potentially illegal content. Since the team is small, and cannot afford a full-time legal team like Twitter or Reddit, they are playing it safe with the content that they choose to host. It’s an issue that every public instance is struggling with.
